For my inspiration, see Natasha's sample card for Fall-To Layout #151 on the Clean and Simple Stamping blog. I really enjoyed working with this layout and color combination. Other than using A2 instead of a square shape, I stayed very close to the sketch dimensions.My solid colors are Papertrey Ink dark chocolate (brown card base), harvest gold, and scarlet jewel (wine). For my striped pattern, I drew lines on Neenah classic cream with wine Copic multiliner and Copic marker R59. The borders on the gold layer are also drawn with wine multiliner and R59.
I also used my Fiskars "imperial" paper edger (scissors), 1/4" office supply hole punch, and EK Success 1" heart punch. The triangle at the top of the tag = the cutout from the bottom. (The horizonally striped piece covers the join.) My "string" is a very narrow strip of cream card stock.
